Lagniappe is the quintessential Edgewater wine bar, where you can craft your own charcuterie board, sip from an eclectic wine selection, and groove to nightly live jazz under twinkling lights in a charming, vibrant outdoor patio.
"Yes, this is more a wine bar than a restaurant, but it’s consistently been one of the best outdoor patio situations in the city for over a decade. The expansive Edgewater jazz club feels like it was plucked straight out of New Orleans, and with live music, grilled basics like churrasco and choripan, and a la carte cheese and charcuterie, it has set the standard for the wine bar/restaurant concept in Miami since its inception. Grab a bottle of white or red, some snacks, and a table out back — the secret garden setting is perfect for a date, solo outing, or friendly group gathering." - Allison Ramirez, Alona Martinez
"Lagniappe is the most popular wine bar in Miami, and with good reason. Whether you’re here to celebrate someone’s birthday, go on a first date, or meet up with a few friends, this place requires zero brain power from you, the designated planner. Just show up. There are cramped jazz concerts happening nightly at 9pm inside, and fridges full of wine outside, which you grab yourself and bring to the register. There are no servers waiting tables—just squirmish guests trying to hurry up and pay so they can go secure a table outside. The earlier you come, the easier it is to get one of those tables." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Lagniappe is proof that not all wine bars are quiet, dim places that feel more like libraries. This place gets packed and loud both inside—where you’ll find a weekly rotation of great jazz and plenty of good wine—and outside, which is a back patio that all other back patios should aspire to be. There are string lights and tons of tables that look like they were collected from years of nearby garage sales. It’s hard to get one of those tables on the weekend though. But if Lagniappe looks too crowded, here are some alternatives nearby." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino
"Yes, Lagniappe is more a place to drink than eat, but the mostly outdoor wine bar in Edgewater does have a small food menu that’s good enough to justify coming here for dinner even though the silverware is plastic. After you grab a bottle of wine inside, head to the backyard to order something from the grill: churrasco, mahi, salmon, chicken, and sautéed veggies are all solid options in addition to the very good meat and cheese plates. Come on the earlier side and you won’t have to compete for a table with a thousand first dates." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Lagniappe is proof that not all wine bars are quiet, dim places that feel like libraries. This place gets packed both inside—where you’ll find a weekly rotation of great jazz and plenty of good wine in a slightly cramped space—and outside, which is a back patio that all other back patios should aspire to be. It’s hard to get one of those outdoor tables on the weekend. So come early (like, 6pm) or just do laps until you see an opening. You can find bottles of wine between $30 and $40 and there's also beer (statistically cheaper). A night spent drinking wine and eating cheese here really satisfies all the senses, and is, of course, super cute. " - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
